Sports-Talk 1560 Loses Another Veteran: Lance Zierlein Calls It Quits at The Game
So morning guy Lance Zierlein shows his double rods and exits 1560 The Game KGOW leaving long time co-host John Granato solo for now. If Zierlein wants to stay in Houston sports radio he is lucky because there are four stations. He's already worked at SportsRadio 610 KILT and obviously 1560 KGOW...that leaves SportsTalk 790 KBME and ESPN 97.5 The Ticket KFNC. I am hearing rumors from multiple sources that SportsTalk 790 KBME is the likely choice. If an announcement is made on KBME, please let me know. Stay tuned...
